In the NHL, each player signs what is, or is a variation of, a standard NHL player's contract. The contract specifies that the team has exclusive rights to the player playing in the NHL. Once an NHL player has played in 180 NHL games, or has played three seasons since signing his first NHL contract, the player must be offered to all of the other NHL teams before he is assigned to a minor league affiliate.
Looks like Repik has simply been a pro too long now to go back in forth without having to go down without being put on waivers.this should clarify things more:

1. The number of years since the player first signed an NHL contract, and/or
2. The number of NHL games [which includes playoff games as well as regular season games] the player has played.
My guess is Repik has now played too many games in the NHL to go back and forth between the AHL or NHL without having to go through waivers.Evan, whether a player has a 1-way contract or a 2-way contract has absolutely no effect on whether the player is subject to waivers or not; it’s dependent on two things:

Isn't a two way deal one in which the player can go down and get called back up without going through waivers?I guess I don’t know much about contracts, but if a player has a two way deal, then why would he need to be put on waivers to get sent to the minors?

So I'm not surprised to see Repik go. Reinprecht gave it a shot, but didn't produce in the preseason. Plus, we're supposed to be on a blueprint for a better team, not the same old team, so out with the old and in with the new. Now, the choices are getting harder as far as who goes next. Stay tuned, Tallon only wants workers, skaters and scorers. Nothing less.Skille is Tallon’s pick and he brought him over from Chicago for a reason. So I’m not surprised to see Repik go.

Constantly shoots high or wide on prime scoring opportunities. Even if he goes somewhere else and plays well it won't be a "Grabner Situation" to me. Grabner was a key piece of the trade of useful player and got no time to shine here. Plus the Panthers had no forward depth last year when they put him on waivers. Repik has had chances to earn a roster spot and just doesn't do much of what he is suppose to do: score goals. They Panthers are too deep at forward with proven players to let Repik continue to try to figure it out at the NHL level. He is still an AHL caliber player right now who probably needs to go elsewhere to have a chance to get better and play in the NHL.
I still don't see anything from Jack Skille. Wasn't impressed with him in Chicago, wasn't impressed with him here last year. With all the depth they have now he better start producing or he'll be in San Antonio before he knows it.Repik has skill no doubt but he hasn’t been able to become an effective finisher yet in the AHL or NHL.

He's quick, crafty and has a ton of skill and isn't afraid to get his nose dirty. Saw Skille play in the 1st pre-season game and he was awful. Could hold on to the puck, had a bunch of give-aways and tired quickly. It was surprising because he looked really good last year prior to getting hurt.You can bet he will.
